The instructions are really well written - just read everything first. The only place that's confusing is when sewing on the front pocket - thnk of it this way - lay the front of the purse down, right side up. Put the pocket down, RIGHT SIDE DOWN, and line up the raw edge of the pocket so that it is one-quarter inch ABOVE the seam line made by the bottom and top of the bag. The pocket will hang down past the bottom edge of the bag. Enjoy!

Once you start making them, you won't be able to stop!

It's a very easy, user friendly purse to make....I've made three so far and plan to make a fourth for myself. I'm going to add a pocket on each end and another pocket on the other side.....:) I like pockets....lolol
If you have any problems, just give the board members a shout, we'll help you through it.......

As stated previously, read the instructions first, walk thru them step by step, and don't rush. It still takes me from start to finish about 6 hours to make one.
